This would break many existing Schemes and I don't think it's going to  
help us any. It's more invasive than multiple, unspecified values, and I  
don't see it as giving us any benefits. We've already voted that all of  
the built-in procedures return a single unspecified value, I don't think  
we need to hammer this out further, despite the fact that I wish we had  
gone with the R6RS approach of allowing unspecified valueS instead of just  
a single value.
